I tried assigning ringtones to people but then I wouldn't realize it was my phone ringing since I seldom get calls on my cell. So I stuck to this. My ringtone for my husband was ten seconds of "All Together Now" with the lyrics:

One, two, three, four
Can I have a little more?
Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten
I love you

My ringtone for my sister was from "Carry On" - Carry on, love is coming, love is coming to us all.

I thought about using "Hello, Goodbye" or "Ob-La_Di, Ob-La-Da" by the Beatles or "Something Happening" by Buffalo Springfield (actually For What It's Worth) or maybe the beginning of "Marrakeesh Express" by Crosby, Stills & Nash, but "Time Warp" fit better. Plus it starts out soft and gets louder.

I also have the CTU ringtone if I wanted to use it.
